Is CFA & CPA combo a good idea?
Hey everyone!In a nutshell, I graduated last year with a degree in business major in accounting. I'm currently an enlisted soldier and I have a plenty of time until my discharge date. I thought I could pull something off during this time to make myself valuable in the job market once I get discharged. I've already registered for the CFA level 1 exam Feb 2023 window and I am doing very well preparing, However, I felt like CFA lvl 1 alone isn't going to deliver the value I'm looking for and since I have a lot of time of soldier life I considered writing the CPA exams as well. From my side, passing all the tests is doable but the usefulness of this combo is at question. Is it a good idea? Given that I'm looking for a career in finance (no specific subfield) I'm targeting both Europe and the Middle East, is it going to help me bag a good job? If not, what should I do?
I'm well aware that these exams alone won't get me the job I'm just trying to make my resume look as good as possible. Plus, from my peers experience, I can tell that recruiters in the Middle East (especially big4) appreciate those exams.
